Josefina Vazquez Mota bids to become Mexico’s first female president
The Telegraph:
Josefina Vazquez Mota, a 51-year-old economist, became the first female presidential candidate from any of Mexico’s major parties when she convincingly won the National Action Party’s primary.
Excellent.
Mrs Vazquez Mota said that she had experienced sexism first-hand during her campaign.
“One of the hardest questions I have been asked is ‘How will you manage the army if you are having menstrual cramps?’” she told a Mexican newspaper.
What.
